>President Obama receives praise from Rush Limbaugh (VIDEO)

urbanradionation

>“We need to open the program today by congratulating President Obama,” Limbaugh said on his Monday show. “President Obama has done something extremely effective, and when he does, this needs to be pointed out.” Yes, as unbelievable as this may sound, conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh heaps tons of praise onto President Obama for following the Bush era policies. He went on to say Thank God for President Obama and that the President single-handedly understood what was at stake here. He alone understood the need to get DNA to prove the death. http://videos.mediaite.com/embed/player/?layout=&playlist_cid=&media_type=video&content=RWWX8432MDFSSVTH&read_more=1&widget_type_cid=svp Continue reading >President Obama receives praise from Rush Limbaugh (VIDEO)

>Public Broadcasting Cuts Would Hurt Rural Areas

urbanradionation

> In an interesting twist of fate, the bill that passed the House last week to defund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, NPR stations and other local public radio stations; would most likely hurt many stations that have programs supporting the views of Republican lawmakers. In order for this to happen the bill has to come before the Democratic controlled U.S. Senate, where it most likely won’t pass. However this SF Gate.com website article paints a far different picture of the efforts to defund NPR by Republican lawmakers and championed by conservative media: “House Republicans are in for a surprise … Continue reading >Public Broadcasting Cuts Would Hurt Rural Areas

>A Risky Strategy for Obama to go after Fox News

> Obama’s White House Communications Director: Fox News Is “Opinion Masquerading As News” A panel on CNN’s “Situation Room”, which included Nia Malika Henderson of Politico.com, discussed an interview White House Communications Director Anita Dunn conducted with Time magazine, in which she says about Fox News: “It’s opinion journalism masquerading as news… They are boosting their audience, but that doesn’t mean we are going to sit back.” Political commentator and former Clinton White House communications director David Gergen thinks it’s a “risky strategy… I understand why they’re frustrated.” Should President Obama’s White House take on Fox News?

>CNN Guest Tim Wise: Republicans Are Stoking "White Racial Resentment"

urbanradionation

>Glenn Beck says that Van Jones was involved in the L.A. Riots. Are there any limits on what THEY will say? Tim Wise an activist against racism talks about the conservative media and the tone it’s setting within the Republican Party with CNN’s Don Lemon. Even though the video is titled: “Republicans Are Stoking White Racial Resentment,” Isn’t it really the conservative media or as Tim Wise calls it the “Mouthpiece” that is irresponsibly leading this dangerous and racially charged tone in this country at the moment? The Republican Party are taking their cues from Fox News and the Rush … Continue reading >CNN Guest Tim Wise: Republicans Are Stoking "White Racial Resentment"

>Howard Stern, That’s Right, Howard Stern calls opposition to Obama school speech ‘racist’

urbanradionation

>Howard Stern pissed off a boatload of Republicans by labeling opposition to the Obama school speech as “racist” on his radio program. Stern expressed his opinion that the only reason that the Obama school speech has set off a new wave of socialist finger-pointing stems from the fact that President Obama is half black, and that racism has distorted the objectivity of those who are against the Obama school speech. Howard Stern is no stranger to claims of racism himself. Early in his career a young Stern appeared on the TV program “Petey Greene’s Washington” hosted by the legendary WOL … Continue reading >Howard Stern, That’s Right, Howard Stern calls opposition to Obama school speech ‘racist’

Content that will drive listeners to turn on conservative talk radio and cable TV news channels. Yes indeed it benefits conservative talk show hosts for Barack Obama to be the President of the United States. High ratings mean more advertising dollars. They need the Obama administration in the White House for content. They need topics. They need a reason for … Continue reading >Conservative Media Attacks the President for Content and Money, but Now Obama has His Swag Back!

urbanradionation

> http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22425001/vp/32722553#32722553 Our favorite news reporter and soon to be media star, Damon Weaver; (the 11 year old from Florida) was first to get the scoop on President Obama’s 18 minute speech on education scheduled for tomorrow. Damon sought for months to get an interview with the President, even during the presidential campaign last year. Last month Damon was granted an interview and that’s when President Obama revealed his plans to give the “big speech.” Who knew at the time that a speech about staying in school would be controversial? In a blog titled “Conservative media take a strong stand … Continue reading >Damon Weaver, Kid Reporter, Scooped Everyone on Obama’s "Back to School" Speech
